Orthophoto generation is the rectification of the distortions in the aerial photographs captured by satellites or image sensors. These distortions are caused due to the systematic sensor or platform-induced aberrations or relief features of the terrain. The geometrical rectification of such distorted images is also known as ortho rectification. This process finds its major use in the Geographic Information System (GIS) industry.
